I got this, 1 complete engine, 3 sets (new in box) of pistons. Ringsm cams, heads and cylinders. Clutch springs, valve springs, bunch of APE hardware still in the packages. Traded even for a front and rear end off a 76 KZ. pretty good deal eh?

I have a 76 KZ motor in my bike now, in the box of goodies I got today were a set of 69.5mm high compression pistons, would these carbs work good with that set up with drop in cams, pods and kerker?

More specifically, those are '73 Z1 carbs with the cool 17mm drains. They also have a more aggressive throttle slide opening.

float bowls are easy to swap between carbs,so it doesnt always mean anything. B)
